Patient Reviews
Dec 30, 2015
Definitely the most hands on Dr I have ever met. Being a mother you definitely can get worked up over sicknesses but Dr. McDonald has a natural way of being so laidback and calm that it's contagious. He takes his time to ask me, the parent, if I have any questions or concerns.
